What are the interpretations of the line 3x - 15y = 60?

X-intercept y-interception

A: x 20 - y - 4

B: x 5 - y 20

C: x - 3 - y 15

D: x - 4 - y 20

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the intercepts, that is where the line crosses the x and y axes

• Let x = 0, in the equation for y - intercept

• Let y = 0, in the equation for x - intercept

x = 0 : - 15y = 60 ⇒ y = - 4 ← y - intercept

y = 0 : 3x = 60 ⇒ x = 20 ← x - intercept
